What is the maximum duration of unemployment benefits in Hawaii?

Asked 6 months ago
The maximum duration of unemployment benefits in Hawaii is typically 26 weeks. However, during times of high unemployment rates, the state may offer additional extended benefits for up to 13 additional weeks. This extension is provided through the Extended Benefits (EB) program, which is a federal extension program triggered when the state's unemployment rate exceeds a certain threshold. The availability of these extended benefits is subject to federal guidelines and may vary depending on economic conditions. It is important to note that individuals must meet certain eligibility requirements and actively search for work to continue receiving unemployment benefits.
